I love this! It's so true and a great reminder - I can't even count how many times I've felt awful and lazy about not finishing a single load of laundry or getting out of my pajamas all day.

@Foodnerd81: Thanks for sharing this!
My favorite part is this:
"Our culture doesn’t have a good way to measure what you are accomplishing. Your baby will grow and meet milestones: check. But to the untrained eye most of this work, at the end of the day, will look like nothing."

Thank you so much for sharing this.. I've had the worst week of my life, struggling with everything and feeling completely inadequate.. (well, we all know those feelings) and this really really helped me right now.. Thank you!

I love this "Close your eyes and measure your day not as tasks, but as feelings, as sounds, as colors. "
I'm past the exhaustion part but still struggle balancing everything sometimes! Such a good reminder.
